 France holding the first round of early parliamentary elections today could bring the country's first conservative government since World War II came to an end. The second round is on July 7th. The outcome of the vote highly uncertain. Turnout is unusually high, we're told. Three major political blocs are competing. The conservative National Rally, President Emmanuel Macron's Centrist Alliance, and the new Popular Front Coalition that includes center-left, greens, and hard-left forces.
